Ah, the X700, I used one for years until it just got to the point where it was worn out. As you are aware these cameras are mostly in the 25 year old range and if they have not had proper tune ups and maintenance done it is likely that it has issues, and likely had them when it was sold to you. Your best bet would be to take it to a reputable camera repair shop and have them give you an estimate.

I have the same issue. I just bought the same camera and it seems its a lens/shutter issue from what I could find so far. I will keep searching and contact canon with this issue to get an answer from them.

Jim, it really sounds like one of threethings. Either will require a repair shop. 1. the film sensor is not recognizing film in the film chamber, or film across the back, therefore not telling the advance motor to advance film...2. The film advance motor itself needs replaced.3. The rear door latch switch needs replaced. Since everything else seems to do OK, I doubt the main computer board is bad.
